Come join us as we take advantage of the great venues in cities throughout Greater Cleveland and Akron for our Summer Concert Cities. We have already scheduled several concerts and I’m certain there will be one near you. Bring a blanket or lawn chair, sit back and enjoy. To pay tribute to this great country of ours, we always close our Summer Concerts with a patriotic theme. Check the dates, times and locations below for the concert nearest you. Go to the Calendar Page to get a map of these locations. We’d love to see you to at several concerts. There will likely be some additions to this list, so please check back.

The Berea Gazebo location at Coe lake is under construction. The city is building a new Amphitheater and will be ready for the 2016 concert season. This year, we will be performing nearby at the Music Mound of the Mill Stream Run section of the Cleveland Metroparks. Use our Calendar link for a google map to this location. As a B-W grad, I love going back to Berea for this concert.

Willoughby, my hometown and I love doing this concert! Great setting in the triangle of historic downtown Willoughby with the concert goers surrounding the gazebo. This is our 5th year doing this concert and we are already booked for 2016! I’m a happy camper.

This concert is part of the D-Day reenactment weekend in Conneaut. This is a monumental undertaking and is attended by people from all over the world! We certainly hope you come out to enjoy the concert, but make sure you take the time to visit the encampments of the US and German troops. If you stick around for the Saturday event, you will see the D-Day invasion replicated on the beach at Conneaut. I’ve seen this all and it is truly impressive.

The absolute best patio in all of Little Italy can be found at one of the oldest run restaurants in the neighborhood, Guarino’s. Located at 12309 Mayfield Road, Guarino’s provides free valet parking, great food, great atmosphere and several times during the warm weather months, us! We will be playing with some regularity on the patio, weather permitting, of course. When Mother Nature does not cooperate, Dave and I will be inside for some piano/vocal entertainment. The two of us can also be found inside the restaurant during the cold weather seasons at least once a month. Check the schedule page for more information as to when we are there. ———————– For reservations call: 216-231-3100 and let Scott, Nancy and Rachel provide you with an enjoyable dining experience.
